==Guidelines, layouts, and advice==
Although we strive to comply with all Wikipedia guidelines, there are a lot of them. The ones here are listed for convenience and also may be particularly helpful when editing South Park articles:
*[[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction)]]
*[[Wikipedia:Notability (fiction)]]
*[[Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles#Check your fiction]]
*[[Wikipedia:Avoid trivia sections in articles]]
*[[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (television)]]
*[[Wikipedia:Image use policy]]
*[[Wikipedia:Citing sources]]
:*[[Meta:Cite/Cite.php | The &lt;ref&gt; element]]

Please do not add mention of pop cultural references, continuity notes, trivia, or who the targets of a given episode's parody are, without accompanying such material with an [[WP:CS|inline citation]] of a [[WP:IRS|reliable]], published, '''[[WP:SECONDARY|secondary]]''' source. Adding such material without such sources violates Wikipedia's policies pertaining to [[WP:V|Verifiability]], [[WP:NOR|No Original Research]], and [[WP:SYNTH|Synthesis]]. 

While a primary source (such as the episode itself, or a screencap or clip from it at South Park Studios) [[WP:FILMPLOT|is acceptable for material that is merely descriptive, such as the synopsis]], it is not enough to cite a primary source for material that constitutes analytic, evaluative or interpretative claims, such as cultural references in works of satire or parody, because in such cases, such claims are being made by the editor. This is called [[WP:SYNTH|synthesis]], which is a form of [[WP:NOR|original research]], and is not permitted on Wikipedia, regardless of whether one thinks the meaning of the reference is "obvious". Sources for such claims '''must be secondary sources''' in which reliable persons, such as TV critics or reviewers, '''explicitly mention''' the reference.

In addition, [[WP:TRIVIA|trivia]]l information that is not salient or relevant enough to be incorporated into the major sections of an article should not be included, per [[WP:PLOTSUMMARIZE]] and [[WP:TRIVIA]], and this includes the plot summary. As indicated by [[WP:TVPLOT]], the plot summary is an overview of a work's main events, so avoid any minutiae that is not needed for a reader's understanding of the story's three fundamental elements: plot, characterization and theme. This includes such minutiae as scene-by-scene breakdowns, technical information or detailed explanations of individual gags or lines of dialogue.
